WhizdomXX:
You are right but Biafra is non-achievable.

Why?

Kukutente23:
What opportunity did Awo have to secede? Besides, Awo never said he wanted secession.
His stand has always been that the North is the main problem and needs to be tamed. Him and Ahmadu Bello never saw eye to eye.
Awo would never enter into any agreement with the north. In fact, he was actively working to liberate the Northern minorities from the core north, something that if achieved would have made Nigeria more balanced. The question is why Azikiwe refused to see all that fact. Balewa already said in 1954 that the south is the biggest threat to the north. He talked about how the north should be wary of the south and ensure they don't have a upper hand. So how could Zik have entered an alliance with the north and later turn around to support secession? It sounds so stupid if you ask me

Who will believe this trash? Awo is nothing but bags of bigotry

TimeManager:
Yes, far bigger in foolishness and shortsightedness, that's why his descedants are still crying "give us biafra" in 2024.

-Kiss the truth!

I'm glad you acknowledged that he's greater than your ancestors both alive and deads

-Kiss the truth!

TimeManager:
Lol.. Kanu the greatest biafran fraud ever liveth, can you hear your wife moaning from kuje?

-Kiss the truth!

You are in severe pains, he's greater than anybody from your region both living and death ones


-Kiss the truth!

AlexBells:
Heya kpele by Nigerian constitution, kanu has freedom of association, he’s greater than all your ancestors put together

You are right, including that foolish Awolowo the RATAK Master, they can't imagine their lives without one Nigeria, I've stopped taking that tribe seriously

TimeManager:
No, it didn't stand, it fell and that's why Nnamdi Kanu is the 3rd elected President of the federal republic of biafra.

-Kiss the truth!

Unity beggar, you can't stay in one Nigeria without the Igbos

-Kiss the truth!

TimeManager:
Today is the consequences of yesterday's decisions. It would be extremely difficult today to introduce such a clause ever again, that opportunity is gone. Zik was the leader of eastern region and NCNC, with selected representatives from his party, they were loud and clear that ibos were opposed to a secession clause and any other person advocating it should be charged for treason. Zik and his caucus were speaking for the ibos.

-Kiss the truth!

Only a unity beggar will make this kind of comment, spit

TimeManager:
You can never absolve Zik, he was the leader of NCNC and Eastern region. The british had nothing to do with it, it was entirely Zik's self aggrandizement.

-Kiss the truth!

Can you stop fouling this thread with your demented ignorance!!

gidgiddy:
You are talking about 70 years ago, I am talking about today. Whatever Zik wanted or did not want 70 years ago is not half as important as what millions of people want today

Sense no go kill you

How long are we going to continue with this useless blame games, we should be talking about how to divide this country, let everybody go their way, i hate being called a Nigerian

helinues:
Toh

Get a job and be useful to your aged parents and yourself, i don't know why you find 30K as a big money

Whataboutism is a rhetorical technique or logical fallacy that involves deflecting criticism or difficult questions by responding with a counter-accusation or a different issue altogether. It often seeks to discredit an opponent's position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly addressing the initial argument.


Characteristics of Whataboutism

Deflection: Instead of addressing the issue at hand, the person redirects the conversation to a different issue.

Counter-Accusation: It often involves pointing out flaws or faults in the critic or their group to undermine their argument.

Avoidance: It avoids direct engagement with the original criticism or question.

Examples of Whataboutism

Political Debate:

Criticism: "Your policy is harming the environment."
Response: "What about your party's policy on healthcare that left many uninsured?"
International Relations:

Criticism: "Country A is violating human rights."
Response: "What about Country B? They have a terrible human rights record too."
Personal Arguments:

Criticism: "You didn't complete your part of the project."
Response: "What about you? You were late last time."


Why Whataboutism is Problematic

Evasion: It prevents constructive dialogue and resolution by shifting the focus away from the issue at hand.

False Equivalence: It often creates a false equivalence between the original issue and the counter-issue, implying they are equally problematic without proper justification.

Undermines Accountability: It can be used to deflect responsibility and avoid addressing valid criticisms.


How to Handle Whataboutism

1. Redirect to the Original Issue: Acknowledge the counter-issue briefly but steer the conversation back to the original point.

e.g "That may be a concern, but let's focus on addressing the current issue."

2. Separate Issues: Clarify that each issue should be addressed on its own merits.

e.g "Both issues are important and deserve attention, but let's resolve this matter first."

3. Demand Accountability: Insist on addressing the original criticism directly.

e.g "Before we move on to other topics, can we discuss how to fix this specific problem?"

By recognizing and appropriately responding to whataboutism, constructive discussions can be maintained and accountability can be enforced.

confusionist stop making joke of yourself and accept that you can't live without the great Igbos in your one Nigeria

garykoeman:
Ogbeni

Don't say what u don't know.

Igbos are cowards.

You are actually right that’s why the Igbo lost Ilorin to Fulanis who install Emir of Kwara State 🤣😄

yarimo:
but you can fold your hands looking at peter obi encouraging drunkness as achievements abi

Tinubu is a Drug criminal and certificate forgery master and deserve firing squad

ElSudani:
This story was distorted by sore losers to embarrass the government.
They were trying to push the narrative that there was no talk of any investment by Maersk, that the story of $600 million dollars was made up.
What a sad set of people.

Keep lying to yourself because we expected it but we already know the truth, stop wasting your precious time 😉

Look at the kind of useless idiota running affairs of this country, how can any sane person expect Nigeria to develope, this kind man should be a gatekeeper and nothing else,

helinues:
Oh, poor them, why do they like to start something they can't see to the end.

They always like to drag their principal unnecessary by attacking others for no sensible reason.

The kind of brain resetting bashing Peter Obi has been receiving with his reckless statements lately and the troublesome of his supporters, heh no be here oo

As una no dey build shishi, allow the visionary ones to do what they know best without turning unaself to enemies of progress and development

May God never bless us with a lazy and omo ofo🙏🏽🤣

AuschwitzPrefec:
Someone that blindly worships the same people who profited immensely from the slave trade of Africans to which your people formed the bulk and who continue to enslave nations through their international ursury racket is nothing but a fool.

Hitler did nothing wrong.

You are already mentally deranged and all you need to do is hit Onitsha under bridge and the rest will be history 🤣

Bone147:
Dey are jokers

Both of you can continue to live in denial and delusion but Hamas terrorist must be dealt with and nothing will stop it, kiss the truth

Emu4life:
We used to hear words like "If Iran fires a fly into Israel, Tehran will be leveled in Minutes "

What a delusion!!! Una think say na Palestinian Orphans

This is just like US/NATO invading Iraq and Libya citing "Weapons of Mass Destruction ". Meanwhile, China, Russia, North Korea and even Pakistan have been flaunting their "Weapons of Mass Destruction ", yet nothing happened.

Brotherman, e don tey wey nyash dey back. Abi u no know say shoe get size??

Enough of your stupidity and stop deviating from the topic coward, this thread is about Israel and Hamas not Iran,

Tinubu is a big failure and nothing good will ever come out of him

What do you expect from illiterate who made his money from Drugs pushing and Education by forging all sorts of fake certificates, this can only happen in Nigeria

Mervingreat:
You that have capacity pls biko kindly tell us your achievements when you are the governor of your state?

Everybody just ant to talk, imagine Suswan of all people too talking.

Anyway, it's too late for rubbish talks, Nigeria is progressing and we are getting there.

May your life progress like Nigeria, kindly say Amen!

DeepThroater:
You can have him as your life President of Biafra

Do you need a towel to clean the tears?

Reflect7:
Worthless imbec.ile dependent on the goodwill of Nigerians to feed yourselves.

Without Nigerians you would starve in your millions.

The north were very prosperous before you Ibos went there..

They were traders before your naked forbears knew what trading meant.

They were prosperous and had writing and architecture when your people were cannibalising each other in the bush before colonial rule.

Jumping around in the bush, drinking palmwine from human heads, and selling yourselves into slavery via the Aros.

So if they drive you back to the East today, you would STARVE en masse and return to cannibalism, your usual fallback.

Worthless dependent wretch with an attitude.

Can you stop fouling this thread with your demented ignorance!!

helinues:
Please stop wailing on my mentions if you can't comprehend my simple message.

What exactly is some of you guys problem that you only come online to attack others for no reason.

[quote author=muhammaduyusufu post=129389573][/quote]How long do you guys want to play this useless game your forefathers failed woefully, ain't you supposed to be worried about your illiterates and starved people who can't eat without begging ? spit

Wainey:
Oga, first the picture on that thread is not Kalabari road, secondly the road is still under construction, it was started by Fubara.
Abi u wan to tell me Wike awarded the project after he left office?
I travel that road every week/month.
The people called the state govt to work the road for years but Wike was silent, the road was so bad there was frequent kidnapping happening there, then NDDC awarded the project and that same day, Wike overwrite it and awarded it again but didn't touch it. it was SIM that started it

Enjoy your argument with Yorubas who believe they know more than those from River State
